Agree: ABBA, Stephen KingDisagree: There Will Be Blood**I awaited this movie excitedly because of it's Jonny Greenwood connection. Once I saw it I hated it. Maybe I need to watch it again.

Esp. the whole idea that if "you don't like it, you don't get it." This argument seems to be the last resort of Fight Club fans too. I mean, awesome that you liked it. But I hate it when people can't understand that it's completely possible to "get it" and still hate it. It's like they're so pleased with the ability to identify cleverness they can't comprehend that others might be able to have opinions that go beyond the smug curtain.

Went right over your head, huh?
